Giles describes the true essence of magick in a line cut due to length:

"Which comes, in all its purity, from the Earth itself."This was suppose to be between the line "The gift that was given me by the coven was the true essence of Magic." and "Willow's magic came from a place of rage and power." in this conversation.

Remember Spike being all crazy in early season 7 of Buffy? Of course you do, who could forget? Okay, maybe people who aren't Spike-fanatics like me. Anyhow, not all of his crazyness made it on-screen, for example like this line from Beneath you's original script.

CORDELIA: You see me wearing Curt Eisenthorpe's football ring or Xander's meet medallion?All three men look at her. Gunn turns to the guys.GUNN: I'd like to take this one. (To Cor) So... what kind of meat did he have that earned him a medallion?CORDELIA: Not that kind of meat -- swim meet, he was on the swim team. Get your mind out of the gutter. All of you!

A thread over at Buffy-Boards.com talks about how Spike's height from time to time changed on screen and in promo shots. James is said to be 5'8-5'9 and David is 6'1, but Buffyverse fan noticed that Angel doesn't always seem that much taller than Spike.

For example in this photo belowThat photo could be a play on perspective, because James could be standing on a box or something, but according to ToShanshuInLA, "JM admitted at Dracon Con last year, or possibly the year before, that he wore lifts. He told a story about his girlfriend at the time was jelaous of how close he and Juilet Landau were and so she pretended to fancy DB, which in turn made JM jelaous and so when he guested on Angel S1 he wore lifts to uh... compensate".

At first I thought "No, he messed with the character" but then I saw how very Spike that was, so I really hope HowToShanshuInLA is right and James did say it. I don't know if Spike would ever have dared to, because I don't think he wanted to risk Angel finding out about it, but it does shine a new light on Spike's line in Chosen, about Angel wearing lifts. so maybe Spike did risk humilation to stand taller, and then turned it around in Chosen (although maybe both Angel and Spike wore lifts).

I'm thinking about harassing Brian Lynch about this so he'll include it in a future Spike comic, Spike commenting on his lifts, because that could be fun.

From Beneath you (Btvs, season 7), when Spike is trying to act like his old self and a big worm thing is being all stalker-y.

Xander reflects on high school life in a line cut due to length:"I forgot high school's unwritten rules of hallway etiquette. Of course, no one ever explained them to me. They'd just stuff me in a locker till I drew my own conclusion."I never give Xander enough credit for becoming a decent guy even tough he was bullied, lived on a Hellmouth and had a crappy family. I might not like the guy the way I used to, but I got to give him props for that.

What is this blog about?

I'm Skytteflickan88 and this is my a Buffy/Angel-blog. I will post about Buffy stuff (interesting articles, funny interviews, beautiful fan art and some of my own thoughts and art about Buffy & Angel).

The adult stuff, that you were warned about before entering the site, is for example vids that show sexual scenes (for example Spike&Buffy sex scenes), dirty manips and the occasional crude joke.

Spoilers for comics, movies, etc etc, will be marked/told, so you don't need to be afraid of being suddenly spoiled (so don't skim the posts in case you're afraid of spoilers).

[My own deeper articles and analyzes about characters, episodes, etcetc, will be marked with MY THOUGHTS]

I'm kind of a ebay-holic and I collect way more Buffy stuff than I can afford, so many blog posts will be about collectibles.
